Possession of controlled substance

Two men and a woman, all of Russellville, were arrested Tuesday night by Officer David Bevis and cited for possession of a controlled substance (marijuana) and no seat belt in use.

According to a report, a traffic stop was conducted at the parking lot of Wal-Mart at Valley Park Centre on a blue Chevrolet Lumina. Officers discovered a clear plastic baggy containing a green leafy substance, believed to be marijuana, under the front seat. All of the subjects denied knowing where or who it came from, after they were read their Miranda rights.

The report indicated the driver stated, "It's not mine, but it's in my car so I'll take the blame." The driver was also cited for defective equipment. All three were placed in custody and taken to the Pope County Detention Center.

-- A 41-year-old Virginia man was arrested by Bevis and cited for possession of a controlled substance (methamphetamine) with intent to deliver, possession of a controlled substance (marijuana), possession of drug paraphernalia, possession of a prescription narcotic without a prescription, driving left of center and driving on the shoulder Thursday morning.

According to a report, the officer saw a tan Honda Accord slow in an eastbound lane of Interstate 40 near the Exit 84 off-ramp, where the traffic stop was conducted, then swerve onto the shoulder. Pope County 911 indicated the driver may be wanted out of the Arkansas Department of Community Punishment for a parole violation when the vehicle's license plate information was checked.

The driver, when asked by Bevis if there was anything in the vehicle he should know about, stated, "Nothing, except this marijuana," which he pulled out from below the front seat and middle console. The report indicated after the man was placed in custody, officers discovered a brass-colored marijuana smoking pipe and a partially-smoked marijuana cigarette in a pack of Marlboros in a leather jacket in the trunk.

After being transported to the detention center, Russellville officers had to assist corrections officers during a slight struggle with the man, according to the report, after he attempted to put a plastic baggy in his mouth. The baggy, which the man spit out, was found to contain five smaller baggies of a white powdery substance that the man stated was "crystal meth." The baggy also contained a dozen prescription narcotic pills.
